Chit-Chat: dakota was here! castform's a winner! <3

[Sirfetch’d]

I need to get more money as well. I blew all of mine on Ultra balls for the friend safari and clothes. I guess I could challenge the Battle Chateau and earn some there!

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I've been wonder trading all day. I take a Pokemon, and trade it. Whatever I get, I trade, and I rinse and repeat until I get something I want. I've gotten a Sheildon, Japanese Torchic, Machoke/Machamp, Lileep, Japanese Rotom, and a Floatzel (Which I'm still deciding on keeping or not). I'm hoping to hit it big soon.

This is exactly what I do lmao. I usually just get a bunch of the elemental monkeys, Fletchlings, or Bidoofs, but I did manage to get a Charmander a few times as well as a Gengar. Other than those though, I have had pretty bad luck for the most part.

 

[Palamon]

I have no reason to trade yet because I have no good Pokemon atm, lol. So there's that.

 

[Esper]

People give away nice things in Wonder Trade. I got a Charmander and an Eevee from there.

I'm actually planning on breeding some Pokemon specifically to put into Wonder Trade.

 

[Sir Codin]

The amount of Bidoof I get from Japanese players in WT is starting to make me dislike Japanese people...

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I know someone who was getting a lot of Bidoofs as well, but eventually got a shiny one. Not the best shiny out there, but a shiny regardless.

 

[Aeroblast]

I have not one shiny in XY yet. Why am I so out of luck ;;

Oh and ngl, I'm actually having a hard time finding Bidoofs. I've found more Azuril than those things.

Same here, bro. Clocking nearly 50 hours without one.

 

[Crux]

GreatthreadnamethereDipu,goodjob.

I still haven't played X/Y yet. :I
Honestly I'm not really in a hurry to, either.

 

[disciplish]

X and Y is sitting in my 3DS which is sitting on my dresser which is sitting upstairs. I haven't really been extremely motivated with it. I've been more motivated to get an emulator and go back to Emerald or something.

As for Wonder Trade, I haven't participated at all. good job Ken you're getting integrated into the Pokemon world not

 

[Sir Codin]

Anyone ever notice this in Pokemon games?


"Do you want me to explain this thing?

> You select "No."

Well, too bad, I'm going to explain it anyway.

 

[Crux]

Yes, Tyler, yes I have.
That, and the pointless descriptions for some things.

"Do you know how to use your Running Shoes?"

 

[Sir Codin]

To be fair, I've noticed it in real life, too.

 

[Crux]

Who knew that for your computer to work you had to plug it in!? =D

 

[Sir Codin]

HOLY MONKEY BALLS, REALLY???

That's pretty much Nintendo in general. They over-tutorialize everything. It's just that Pokemon gets it especially bad since they have to accommodate the younger player base.

 

[disciplish]

I'd rather have a tutorial that can be skipped and/or accessed manually from the options or something. Seeing manuals over and over again only serve as exorcise for my thumbs; not like they need it anyways.

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I don't mind it tbh. I've noticed on a few things in the past that I have selected the "no" option and upon them explaining it anyways, I find out something that I didn't know. Yeah, it's a bit annoying and repetitive on a few things such as the running shoes but overall not anything that I can't look past :p

 

[Crux]

Uh, unless the tutotial is praying for your thumbs to leave, then I think you mean exercise.

Spoiler:

"IN THE NAME OF CHRIST THE LORD, I CAST YOU OUT, OPPOSABLE DIGITS!!"

But seriously, where would we be without directions?
I'll tell you where; standing on top buildings, wearing chainmail shirts in a thunderstorm, and shoving batteries up our noses. Because, of course, wouldn't everybody if they weren't told not to?

 

[disciplish]

Quite obviously, my opposable digits are works of extreme evil and are capable of bringing hell upon Earth. As well as 3DS buttons.

I would too, but not for the same reasons. It just suspends the disbelief. Being told how to do something (like with running, they'd tell you to press and hold B) just reminds me that the game isn't real, and I'm one of those people who like to forget that while I'm playing and just enjoy the experience.
